What Robot Business Analyst is
Robot Business Analyst is a subagent published in the jabrena/plinth repository on GitHub, which has about 441 stars. The repository describes itself as: “Plinth is an AI-native engineering toolkit for modern Java enterprise SDLC, built around reusable Commands, Agents, Skills, and MCP Servers.”
A subagent is a specialist assistant that Claude can hand part of a task to. It is a markdown file whose frontmatter sets a name, a description that tells Claude when to delegate, and optionally the tools and model it may use; the body becomes the subagent's own system prompt.
Because a subagent works in its own context, it keeps the main conversation focused: Claude can send a narrow job, such as a review or a specialised analysis, to Robot Business Analyst and get back a compact result.
How to install Robot Business Analyst
Claude Code
- Download README.md from the repository.
- Save it to ~/.claude/agents/ to use it in every project, or to .claude/agents/ inside one project to share it through version control.
- Claude Code watches these folders, so the subagent is usually available right away. Ask Claude to use it by name, or @-mention it to make sure it runs.
Claude Cowork
- Cowork loads subagents through plugins. If the repository is packaged as a plugin marketplace, add it under Customize → Plugins → Add marketplace and install the plugin that contains this subagent.
- Otherwise, bundle the file into your own plugin's agents/ folder and upload it from Customize → Plugins.
New to extending Cowork? Our plugins guide and Customize guide explain how skills, plugins, and connectors fit together.

Goal
An opinionated AI-native workflow for evolving modern Java Enterprise SDLC practices through reusable Skills, Agents, Commands & MCP servers.
What is a Plinth?
> A plinth represents the solid foundation or platform used to support statues or artworks in art and sculpture. It served as a structural and symbolic foundation for columns, statues, and entire temple podiums. Romans inherited the idea from Greek architecture but expanded its use to emphasize monumentality, hierarchy, and imperial power.

You can use the project in 2 ways:
- Use the AI-Native development workflow
- Refactor your code with Skills
Using the AI-Native development workflow
Prepare the repository with /onboarding, then identify an issue in your Kanban dashboard from Atlasian Jira, Github Issues or Azure DevOps and apply the following workflow:
/onboarding
|
v
Issue
|
v
/update-issue --> /explore-problem --> /create-acceptance-criteria
|
v
/create-spec --> /explore-design
|
v
/implement-spec --> /close-spec/onboarding establishes root AGENTS.md and one unambiguous OpenSpec project before issue selection. It preserves existing prerequisites; when OpenSpec is missing, you select its result path with documentation/openspec as the default.
##### Analysis & Design
Turn an idea into an actionable change with user stories, GitHub Issues or Jira, ADRs, diagrams, AI plan mode, and OpenSpec.
Functional Specification:
Command Explanation /onboarding Establish root repository guidance and one unambiguous OpenSpec project before issue work. /update-issue Update an existing GitHub or Jira issue with a structured user story, acceptance criteria, and resource content. /explore-problem Evaluate an issue from five perspectives and post a Functional Specification comment on the issue. /create-acceptance-criteria Derive Gherkin acceptance criteria from a Functional Specification and post them as a separate issue comment.
Technical Specification:
Command Explanation /create-adr (Optional) Record an architectural decision, its alternatives, rationale, and consequences. /create-diagram (Optional) Create a focused architecture or design diagram from approved artifacts. /create-spec (OpenSpec) Create or update one or more validated OpenSpec changes. /explore-design Compare technical approaches and obtain an approved design direction.
##### Build
Implement and improve Java applications with Maven, design, coding, testing, security, documentation, Spring Boot, Quarkus, Micronaut, OpenAPI, and WireMock guidance.
Command Explanation /implement-spec Deliver an approved plan or validated OpenSpec task list through framework-aware delegation. /close-spec Archive an OpenSpec change by name using the OpenSpec CLI.
Operate
Measure and improve production behavior through observability, profiling, benchmarking, and performance testing.
Command Explanation /profile Coordinate Java profiling from baseline detection through verified optimization. /benchmark Select and coordinate JMeter, Gatling, or JMH performance workflows.
Before you install
- Read the whole file first. Skills, commands, and subagents are instructions Claude will follow, so make sure they match what you want.
- Check which tools, scripts, or MCP servers it uses. Local servers and scripts run with your permissions.
- Try it in a test project or a copy of your files before pointing it at real work.
- Pin the version you tested, and review changes before updating.
- Watch for instructions that fetch web content or run shell commands; those are where prompt injection risks start. See our prompt injection guide.
